Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy is the treatment you need when your hormone levels drop below normal. This imbalance in hormones causes significant health challenges because hormones regulate every cell, organ, and function in your body.
Hormones activate and inhibit your immune response, control your reproductive system, and regulate many functions, such as:
To maintain optimal energy and stay healthy, you need specific hormone levels. When levels fall, you suffer emotional, physical, and psychological consequences.
You could have an endocrine gland problem or an underlying health condition that affects hormone production. Maintaining optimal hormone levels also demands a healthy gut and a fully functioning gastrointestinal tract.
Many problems disrupt hormone levels, including:
However, you may not have any of these problems and still end up with a hormone imbalance due to aging. The levels of many hormones decline with age, including growth hormone, cortisol, insulin, and thyroid hormones.
Women experience a dramatic loss of estrogen at menopause. Men have a more gradual decline as testosterone levels slowly drop every year after the age of 30.
During perimenopause (the years before menopause) and menopause, women experience hot flashes, night sweats, and vaginal dryness. Men may experience erectile dysfunction as testosterone declines.
Beyond gender differences, men and women share similar symptoms when they have low hormones:
Hormone imbalances also increase your risk of developing serious chronic health problems such as osteoporosis, Type 2 diabetes, and heart disease.
Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy safely and naturally restores normal hormone levels without synthetic medications. Dr. Wool achieves optimal results using Biote® bioidentical hormones, which have the same chemical structure as your body's hormones, yet they're made from plants.
When balancing hormones, Dr. Wool runs blood tests to determine the precise type and amount you need. Then a customized Biote pellet contains your unique dose.
After Dr. Wool implants the pellet under your skin, it consistently and continuously releases hormones into your bloodstream, perfectly maintaining your hormone levels. As you regain hormonal balance, your symptoms disappear, and you may prevent having chronic health conditions.
